Pet care experience
I always strive to be an empathetic person, therefore I will take the safety and well being of your best friend very seriously. I've had dogs throughout my childhood and into adulthood. I have over 10 years of experience in caring for dogs and will take wonderful care of your pup while you're away! I will do everything I can to provide and maintain a calm loving environment and will gladly do my best to ease any stress or tension your pet may feel. If you're working on any training, I'm more than happy to enforce what you're working on. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have before working with your pup and let me know of any concerns or special requirements I may need to know about. I look forward to meeting you and your dog!
Reviews
Cate was a fantastic pet sitter for our eldery trio. Our senior dog reguired daily medication and very patient walks, along with a little bit of help up the steps. As for our cats, one needed thyroid medication, 2 times a day and the other just needed an abundance of attention. Everyone's needs were met by Cate with so much care. We were able to travel out of town with a peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for. Also, Cate was great in her regular communications during her stay!
Cate has taken care of our two senior doggos and our home multiple times! She's always been communicative and accommodating to the needs and schedules of our dogs and ourselves. Each time we come home, both dogs are happy and relaxed having stayed at home with her. We would highly recommend her!
Cate was an excellent dog and house sitter while we were out of town! All 3 of our pups enjoyed her stay. Cate is a wonderful and prompt communicator and she sends lots of pictures, which we always appreciate. We will definitely be having Cate back to stay with the dogs; highly recommend her services.
Cate was an excellent sitter for our two senior dogs. Although they sleep most of the day, they need a little extra TLC and more frequent potty breaks, and Cate was able to stay with them on a regular schedule! Highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment
If possible, I prefer written instructions that can be referred back to. This way I can ensure your pet will be kept on their regular schedule and have every need met. For drop in visits and walks I will gladly remain in communication with you as you see fit throughout the visit!
Information Cate M. would like to know about your pet
Knowing any routines you and your pet have in advance, will help me to keep them on schedule while you're away. Additionally any medications or vitamins, or special requests of any kind. I'd like to keep your pet on the daily schedule they're used to, so they can be as comfortable as possible while their best friend is away.
A typical day
Any toys your pet has will be put to good use! I love going for walks during the cooler hours of the day especially, and will gladly take advantage of the numerous trails in the area.

Availability
I'm currently working part time, and the longest I'd be away from the home on work days would be 7 hours. My work is client based so any days I'm not fully booked will mean more play time for your pup!
